NOVA travels to Mount McKinley, the highest and coldest mountain in North America. Every year over 1,000 people attempt to climb to its summit, some never return alive. Known by its Native American name, Denali has earned a reputation as one of the deadliest mountains on earth. 'Deadly Ascent' brings together a team of doctors, rescuers and world class mountaineers as they try to solve the mystery behind these deaths.

NONE

K2, the second highest mountain in the world, has earned the nickname 'The Savage Mountain' because of its violent storms and catastrophic avalanches. Fewer than 200 climbers have conquered K2 and only five of them were women. None of these five women is alive today. WOMEN OF K2 follows former Spanish model Araceli Segarra as she embarks on a route to the summit never before attempted by a female climber. Through Segarra's odyssey, the documentary also chronicles the unforgettable journeys of the five women who were killed following their passion for climbing, and explores the extreme personality, impeccable climbing skills and sheer perseverance necessary to achieve such a formidable goal.
